Story Of Mrs. W- Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH IJIJ| My garden blossoms pink and white | A |
| A place of decorous murmuring | B |
| Where I am safe from August night | A |
| And cannot feel the knife of Spring | B |
| - | |
| And I may walk the pretty place | C |
| Before the curtsying hollyhocks | D |
| And laundered daisies round of face | C |
| Good little girls in party frocks | D |
| - | |
| My trees are amiably arrayed | E |
| In pattern on the dappled sky | F |
| And I may sit in filtered shade | E |
| And watch the tidy years go by | F |
| - | |
| And I may amble pleasantly | G |
| And hear my neighbors list their bones | H |
| And click my tongue in sympathy | G |
| And count the cracks in paving stones | H |
| - | |
| My door is grave in oaken strength | I |
| The cool of linen calms my bed | J |
| And there at night I stretch my length | I |
| And envy no one but the dead | J |
